Android Creating button dynamically and fill layout

Question

I\'m creating a button dynamically. The number of button is depend on the size of arraylist. the problem is, after creating the button I will add to the layout using addview

Answer 1

After 2 days struggling thinking bout this problem finally I've found the solution. I've try put all my contact list, store it in arraylist and create button for each element and I'm quite satisfy with the result after display on the screen. Here is how I do the trick. I really appreciate for any comment from others.

variable declaration;

int currWidth;
int currCounter;
boolean isNewLine;
LinkedList> button;
ArrayList nameNumber = new ArrayList();
contactWrapper = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.multiple_selection);

create button onClick event;

for(int i=0;i map = new HashMap();
            map.put("button", tv[i]);
            map.put("width", tv[i].getMeasuredWidth());                             
            button.add(map);
        }
        drawLayout();

drawlayout method is where I add button and arrange accordingly to fit the layout;

public void drawLayout(){
        int counter=0;
        contactWrapper.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
        currCounter=0;
        currWidth=0;
        isNewLine=false;
        LinearLayout[] row = new LinearLayout[nameNumber.size()];
        row[currCounter] = new LinearLayout(getApplicationContext());
        @SuppressWarnings("rawtypes")       
        Iterator it = button.iterator();
        for(int i = 0; i

this code quite messy + I'm not fully utilize the size of array for

LinearLayout[] row = new LinearLayout[nameNumber.size()];

but it work for me.
